11-Channel Processing, 9-Channel Amplification
Just because the Denon AVC-X4800H offers 9-channels of amplification, it doesn't mean you need to stop there... With an external 2-channel amplifier, you can assign it to drive either Front Left and Right speakers, or a pair of height channels. Or perhaps setup an 11-channel speaker configuration for a 7.1.4 cinema, allowing you even more flexibility from an engulfing audio experience.
Pre-Amplifier Mode
Your Denon AV amplifier can work as a perfect AV preamplifier with the latest HDMI connectivity. Pre-Amplifier Mode provides a cleaner signal path and more tolerance in clipping level by disconnecting internal amplifiers. Add the flexibility to disconnect select speaker channels so that you can use the AV receiver's built-in amplification to drive non-critical channels to get a clearer signal path for the channels driven by external amplification.
Subwoofer Outputs and Settings
Blanket yourself in evenly distributed, accurate bass. Featuring up to four subwoofer outputs to smooth out low frequencies and provide better dispersion. No audible peaks or dips - just powerful, room filling bass. Tweak your subwoofer settings to your preference when more than two subwoofers are connected.
